The Daily News correspondent 'wiring from the front at Aisne, says: ' "We know a little of- what the casualties were at the battle of the Marne, when the, Germans for the first time were driven back...1 And I fear when the cost of victory' on this new front is known ,Mt may shock many persons who'at-present, hardly realize what, kind of a war this is, into some dim understanding of.it.". _ ��������������������������� . 7,, . . .7 ��������������������������� When; the _ Germans ywere compelled "to.yfall back, fromr~the gates of Paris, in''order, if possible," to dispose of the big end of-the'/allies' lighting. machine, Gen. -Von,.Kliik, it has developed, prepared the hills along thc banks of the Aisne for his army, there.to fight on-the defeh: sive against the on-coming army.of. the.

It may be a reaction from the'depression, or possibly the war itself is making Englishmen look to Canada for safe investments. It is also becoming' steadily recognized here that ;war orders, and the stopping of European supplies to competitive markets, must give increasing impetus to Canadian industries, especially cotton, woolen, iron and steel." Pursuant to thc provisions of ihe Game Act, the Lieutenant-Governor in Council has made the following bounty regulations: '. Subject to the conditions contained in these regulations, bounties shall be given and.pj^'d to "any person who is the hold^of a gun license, and to any Inuiaii for thc destruction within the Province of animals and birds as follows: For each mature coyote, S3; wolf, $15; cougar,7$15; for each young of thc coyole,-wolLoiucougaiiJiotJcss^thaii_* one week old when killed, one-half these amounts, respectively; for each mature golden eagle, but only in respect of such birds when killed in thc counties of Yale, Kootenay or Cariboo, $3.

SEPTEMBER 24, 1914 THE REAL WAR JUST BEGINNING i Lore were thousands ol' Gen mm soldiers killed in the onslaught upon thc l'orls ol" Liege, bul that was nol the real war; il was only thc slaughter ol* nicii by the marvclouslyclleclivc machine guns and other artillery. Thc men were simply mowed down, wilh lilllc or no loss to thc Belgian Iroops.in lhc l'orls. In thc march of the German troops lo Paris, they had to encounter some opposition from lhc Allies all along thc way, but il was not real war. For thc most part it was a scries of rear guard actions, with the Allies falling back lo places of safety. In thc retreat of the Germans from Paris, or rather thc pushing back of lhc right wing, the enemy succeeded in retiring to thc Aisne and Mueusc positions without having his lines broken, and thc German losses, considering thc nature of thc retreat, were less than might have been anticipated. There is noticing so far"to show lhat they have suffered in mora'fc any more than thc Allies suffered in morale in falling back upon Paris. Thc position thc Germans occupy at lhc Aisne and Suippc, we arc told by military experts, is one of thc finest possible defensive 1 ielclsTwhcrc attMl^ttrc^lSxcecdingly'difficu 1 hand defence easy. Ancl it is here that thc combined efforts of the Allies have failed, in eight or ten days fighting, to dislodge, or even make any serious impression upon, lhe enemy's defences. At lhc same time the loss of life has been deplorable on bolh sides, and officers from thc front are authority for the statement from Paris that thc strain of battle on both sides of thc lighting line promises soon lo get beyond human endurance. Thc antagonists are "likened to two exhausted pugilists and it is said that soon they will be unable to inflict .'further punishment on each other. These facts arc emphasized because many newspaper reports give credancc to optimistic statements -which create feelings that can only bring final disappointment.' Some days ago it seemed probable that the Germans were only holding their strong-position at River Aisne to enable them to convey their transports back before retiring from French soil, bul'it i.s later reported from the front lhal they arc evidently contemplating serious counter-offensive operations again. Very much, it is said, depends, at this stage, upon whether thc Allies have sufficient forces available for them lo attempt a serious flanking movement, thus manoeuvring thc Germans out of their position. When the. German army is finally driven out of France by the Allies, then the war will begin in earnest. " They will be fighting on Iheir own land and from positions of their own choosing, supported by forts as formidable as any in the world. That Lord Kitchener foresees some of the difficulties before the Allies is evident by the fact of his apparent determination lo impress upon thc Empire lhal the war will be a long one, and lhat it will he necessary to send millions of men to the front. To many these warnings from the war ollice seem lo have little value, and time and again we hear Lhe statement lhat Christmas will see the end of it. In this connection the following from thc Scientific American, of New York, the foremost scientific journal of the world, should be read with interest: "Wilh the war a month old, Austria is yet to be heard from/except in the role of the defeated; and already it begins to look as though Germany will have to depend upon her own strong arm to overthrow the Allies. Judged in point of mere numbers , lhe odds are two to one against her on land, and three and a half lo one on lhc sea. But thc history of war, whether ancient, medieval, or modern, teaches us lhal superiority of numbers i.s merely one among many important factors lhal win battles and make it ultimately possible lo dictate terms to a thoroughly beaten enemy. Proof of this i.s to be found in that brilliant page of German history covered by the' Seven Years' War, when Prussia, under her marvelous soldier king, Frederick the Great, waged a successful war against a combination of enemies, as strong, relatively", if not stronger, than that which confronts the German people in the present crisis. "Thc seemingly overwhelming numbers of the Triple Entente are greatly offset by the fact that Germany holds an unusually strong strategic position, both on sea and land, and that whereas her armies are of a common race, speaking a common language, the enemy i.s composed of three races, speaking no language in common, and differing widely in tastes, temperament, ancl traditions. "Of enormous advantage to Germany is the* fact that the geography of the naval ancl military situation is such that she is planted squarely between her major enemies, France and Russia; and so long as she is supreme in the Baltic, it is impossible forthose countries to effect a joint concentration of their troops in overwhelming numbers upon cither frontier. "And Germany;be it remembered, has all the advantage of fighting on interior lines. Because of her admirable system of military railroads, many of them built with a view to just such a crisis as that which, now confronts her, she can move her reserves quickly to either frontier and mass them at any point of attack or defense. Furthermore, if, as she hopes and firmly believes, she can succeed in crushing thc French armies in a succession of conclusive engagements, her possession of interior lines would enable her to move a portion of the flower of her army, which is now confronting France, to thc eastern frontier for the repulse of the Russian invasion. "In the event of German reverses and a failure of her invasion of France, she would fall back upon her line of frontier fortifications, take up a strong defensive position, and hurl the bulk of her armies against the on-rolling tidcc.of. Russian invasion, which, at the present writing, appears to have gained a victory of imposing proportions. If lhis should be the course of events, the Germans would settle down to a war of defense, which might last two or three years, and end in lhe contestants fighting each other to the point of utter exhaustion. There is no reason lo believe that-the German of the 20th century has lost-any of the powers of recuperation and dogged resistancc^which carried him through the seven years of war under the great Frederick." ' . ' It is thc fact that Lord Kitchener recognizes the strong strategic position of Germany and thc extraordinary fighting metal of the German troops thai he is able to tell the people of Britain what to expect in the war now on. And.no-inan knows the fighting qualities of his own troops better than Lord Kitchener. He knows that the British arc pitted against the Germans, two of,thc best fighting organizations in the world, in a life and death struggle, and he knows it cannot be a drawn battle ���������������������������it must be a knock-out. -(!

CANADIAN FLOUR IN DEMAND Orders from thc Dominion and Ontario Governments for an aggregate of 1,250,000 barrels of Hour arc only theY)egilining of the increased demand on the Hour mills of Canada as a result of thc war. The mobilization of the armies of Europe will result in a large reduction in the acreage sown to wheat in lhat Continent. That reduction in acreage ancl consequent reduction in yield will greatly increase thc demand for wheat and Hour" from other producing countries. Canada will Unci a ready market during the war for all the wheal and Hour she can export. The Hour mills of Canada will be kept busy grinding Canadian wheal into Hour for export to the Mother Country at this time of trial. In thc home market also there will be an increased demand for Hour. Thc tendency of many will be to use more bread and other staple articles of food instead of some of the luxuries of thc table. This will mean an increased consumption of Hour. Thus it would appear that the 7,000 men who are working in the flour mills of Canada are assured of continued employment throughout the war. It is possible thc number of employees in Hour mills will have to be increased but even if an increase should he unnecessary the continued operation of this industry will mean the circulation of approximately $4,000,000 a year in wages to workmen.

Anderson made his first "I see red and white clover grow- shipment of apples from the Riverside farm this week, to be included in a large shipment going from the Okanagan United Growers to Aus- trilia. One hundred boxes of Jonathans were loaded on Tuesday, going direct to the coast, where they will make up the balance of the shipment. These apples, while a little small owing to the dryness of thc season, were of a very fine quality, and well colored. f Mr. Anderson has as fine a looking . apple orchard as is to be found in the district, and the trees are producing a fine' crop. He will pick in the neighborhood .of 400 boxes of different varieties.

As the result of these few" years, of labor Mr. Anderson has now a farm that can be pointed' to with pride by himself and the district.

The comet can be faintly distinguished shortly after dark, when it is to be found directly south of the 'Pointers', in the Great Dipper. The North Star, the 'Pointers' and the comet are almost in 'a straight line. Its high northern declination brings this region before sunrise, and the" best time to observe it is between 3 and 4 a.m. There is also another comet visible this month, but not to the naked eye. It is known as Neujmin's. This comet is 346 million miles from the sun/, and more than 300 million miles from the earth, which explains its great faintness. It is said to be a very big one to be visible at all so far off. Scores of newspepers have sus pended publication, and hundreds of others have raised the subscription price. For the present "The Family. Herald and Weekly. Star," of Montreal, being in an exceptionally strong position, is able, for the present, at least, to keep its rate as formerly, but an increase later may become necessary.

Superintendent Three Million Men Fought to a Standstill in the Battle of the Aisne London, Sept. 21.���������������������������The best blood of England, France and Prussia helps the torrential rains to swell the Aisne River's flood, while British, French and German people, together with the rest oi* the world, wait without news of the greatest battle in the world's history. Following an artillery duel of four days, it is probable that thc German and Allied armies have since clashed in a hand to hand conflict. The result of the struggle is still unknown to anyone outside of official circles in Berlin, France and London. Willi the Allies attempting to turn the German right wing, thc Germans attempting to, push through thc centre and re-occupy Rheims, and the men themselves practically dying from exhaustion, the situation has reached a stage which has passed from critical to vital. It lias become a question of reinforcements. The battle has already been prolonged beyond the point of human endurance. It is said by some military men that thc result has become a question of nerves. They claim there is a point when even military genius must succumb before the constantly piling "heaps of dead and tlie constantly growing choruses of wounded men. Stragetically, thc two armies are both in a position from which neither one of them dares to withdraw. Steady rain for a week has made it impossible to extricate the heavy artillery from the morass into which thc whole of northern France has been turned. Neither side will dare to give up the battle on the Aisne without its guns, and these, seemingly equal in numbers and in strength, have nearly roared out their usefulness. Like two tired fighting dogs, .lhc two armies face each other and growl. Personally, the.men upon both sides must be at least knee-deep in water in their trenches. They arc not raising their heads. They scarcely dare to tend their wounded. Certainly they cannot risk thc burying of their dead. It- is a battle without a parallel in history. Nearly three million men are engaged, and apparently cannot get away from each other. Undoubtedly the Allies are trying to turn the western wing of the German army, but here they meet General Von Kluk, the same man who forced them in their retreat upon Paris,and who so severely harrassed them all thc way in their march from Belgium. **^PnTis~aTKl~E^^ out bulletins claiming success in this direction, but purposely laconic statements in Berlin claim lhat this master strategist is keeping well up with his task. In this connection everyone is asking thc whereabouts of thc Russian force, thc reported second British army, the Indian contingent, and even thc Canadian troops, some of whom arc reported to be in Belgium. Certainly the presence of a great body of British in thc neighborhood of Ostend would seem like a brilliant stroke of strategy at this time, because there can be no disguising the fact that thc Allies are almost at their last breath of endeavor with their forces in the field. The British admit this. Lord Kitchener has been more than usually reticent and pessimistic, and practically every minister of the cabinet is in the field as a recruiting oflicer. The German centre, strongly entrenched, holds fast. The French are - now" contenting themselves with the use of artillery at this point. On the French right, however, fierce fighting is again in progress, with the Germans endeavoring to assume thc offensive probably in the hope, that this action will dent a little the terrible pressure on thc right. Interest generally centres on the left wing. The British have lost very heavily, as since the fighting began they have not been permitted to rest at any time. German commanders, apparently realize that it was the excellent work of the British forces that carried the day at thc Battle Of Marnc, and have concentrated their efforts in an attempt to destroy thc English. Thc result has been a staggering casualty list, thc details of which arc withheld, bul thc British gaps are being refilled by men sent from home bases, and their offensive has never slackened.

Not one of the men employed in this work of destruction wants to perform it; hot one of them knows how it has,coriie about that he is performing it; not one of them knows what object is to be served by performing it.

Slcwarl-Whytc's'famous London "Versalilcs" will play llieir third annual engagement in Enderby on Saturday evening, Sept. 2Gth All the old favorites, including Miss Lara Clinton." Billy Oswald, Harry Haywood and Billic Conlcy, the dashing Irish tenor of two seasons ago, are wilh the company this year, together with a half dozen new artists just over from the Old Country. Thc bill this season is "Scoltic in Japan," a laughable comedy with musical trimmings; Twenty per cent of thc" "Versalilcs" profits this season goes to the war fund. Scats are now selling at Reeves' Drug Store. Thc prices arc, reserved $1.00; general admission, 50c; children 25c. GETTING DOWN TO WORK While C'mada is at war in lhc' national sense, there is industrial peace all over thc country Canadian market formerly supplied by German manufacturers or by Austrian and. oilier European countries. Sir George considers lhal the big problem is lo Some benefits that Canada might derive from Europe's war are denied us by restrictions of Empire palriolism. The keenest Canadian business man would not willingly prolil lo-day by a situation lhal handicaps lhc Mother Counlry. Bul in the field of commercial activity now open lo Canadian manufacturers, there are now���������������������������by reason of this unsought war���������������������������various opportunities for us, which mean loss to none other than Germany. Much of the trade lhal was Germany's in Canada should now become onr own. Who bul our own Canadian manufacturers should now make the hosiery, the underwear, the paper, the toys, the silver and much of the chemicals, dye- stuffs and other things Germany has supplied us? All lhis additional business, now so readily tending toward Canadian concerns, will be divided among them in proportions depending upon thc aggressiveness with which they, respectively, go after such business. In that aggressiveness, as in all commercial campaigns, advertising must .be an important factor. Doubly important right now��������������������������� because this trade thai was Germany's i.s going lo be apportioned among our factories al once. Our people must have these things���������������������������not six months or a year hence���������������������������they arc buying them now. Slocks are running low, and the firms lhat ask most insistently for their share are going to get iT���������������������������large and quickly. Il will be a test. Advertising will soon reveal which'of our industrial enterprises arc most worthy and best prepared to profit by Germany's set-hack. The firms first to advertise for this business that was Germany's will be thci first to profit and thc ones lo profit, most .largely G\yhen that business becomes. Canada's. ; .Who", among our Canadian manufacturers, is willing'.to-be left out in the "cold? Who, among such firms, will fail to advertise? LOCAL ADVERTISING. This is the testing time. Thc merchant who shows lhe white feather by excluding his business name from Ihe local paper, in lhis or any olher community, will be the first lo feci the cifecls of hard limes. The merchant ��������������������������� who hammers the harder in hard limes for a share of the people's business is lhe surest lo gel, not only his share, bul also lhc share lhat should belong lo lhc merchant requiring flannel fool-pads. Advertising is recognized the world over as the one indispensable thing lo all business. Tlie buying public is nol blind. People arc very observing. They quickly recognize thc man* in business who i.s strong when others are weak. Times may be ever so hard, but thc buying public will nol pass by a live merchant for a dead one. The buyer can readily, and does readily, perceive the man who, in spite of business depression, keeps his colors flying. In any community it is thc live ones who advertise. When a business man lakes his name out of lhe home paper���������������������������withdraws behind his door ���������������������������does nothing to keep business with,its face right side front��������������������������� nothing to let the world know he is in business in the lown���������������������������he must of necessity lurn business away. Better reduce his business advertising to a single-inch ad than to snuff it oul altogether. If a business man wants business he mu'sl go after it; and .lhe harder 'times are the harder he makes them, for himself and for others, .when he quits the first essential to business ���������������������������advertising���������������������������and crawls off into a corner and pulls down the blind.

The Department of Labor which, when the war broke out, appealed Ihrough Hon. Mr. Crolhers for the amicable adjustment of labor difficulties, is keeping in constant communication wilh the different centres and watching industrial conditions. The general situation is. looking up, according to advices received al Ottawa from all parts of lhe Dominion. At lhc outbreak of the war there was more =-oiHcss=-pessimism���������������������������aiul=-talk-M)f- suspending industrial operations, but confidence appears to he gaining, and many Canadian manufacturers are adopting thc patriotic policy of not only supplying whal hostile countries have hitherto supplied to Canada, hut are endeavoring to capture the Irade of such countries with lhe South American republics. The opportunities are. extensive and Ihe outlook is hopeful. When the statistics for the past month are available a very substantial improvement is likely lo he registered. The trade roul.es temporarily demoralized at lhe outset are now open, and imports and exports are coming and going in considerable volume. An increase in lhe customs revenues for September is expected on account of largely increased imports from lhe United States. The industrial situation, it is expected, will he grealiy improved by heavy eon tracts that, il is,understood, will be placed in Canada by Great Britain and her allies. England has already bought a large amount ot hay and oals in Canada. More .contracts for equipment and supplies are being placed. Sir Cleroge E. Foster, Minister of Trade and Commerce, is quite j optimistic over lhe industrial j outlook. He emphasizes lhatj the greatest opportunity is in the venloricd a drug store lo find out what supplies came from Germany and can.be produced in this country.
